A rare anterior sacral osteochondroma presenting as sciatica in an adult: a case report and review of the literature
Conclusions: Solitary osteochondroma can rarely present in the sacrum as low back pain and sciatica. In general, when osteochondroma causes pain in an adult, we should think that some structure is impinged or that it could have initiated a malignant transformation, so en bloc excision should be used to remove the tumor and histologic studies performed to assess for malignant transformation. Battered nerve root syndrome may take up to 8 months to resolve. (Source: The Spine Journal)
